The Alabama Solution
Saturday 11 October, only on HBO Max
Same day as US (1 episode)
In 2019, filmmakers visit an Alabama prison to film a revival meeting. Off camera, incarcerated men whisper a message: terrible things are going on here that are being kept secret from the public. This sparks an immersive 6-year investigation to discover the reality behind the walls of the nation’s deadliest prison system. With unprecedented direct access, the filmmakers learn from incarcerated men about a suspicious and violent death.
The story unfolds in real time, revealing it isn’t an isolated incident, and that the official version appears far from the truth. What follows is a shocking story of brutality, corruption, and a system in collapse. As the men fight for their own survival, they embark on a campaign of resistance, against all odds.
